Never Late, Never Away Chapter 1744

Jory saw Dustin’s smirk and elaborated, “I was focused on defending, but I still won.”

“Let me guess. You were not alone.” Dustin’s question threw Jory off guard.

“W-What?” Jory’s face flushed.

Dustin rolled the newspapers into a stick and fumbled with it. “You’re not the type to waste time on meaningless stuff, so…”

Dustin’s voice trailed off. It was clear what he was getting at—it was as if he could see through Jory.

Dustin ignored Jory’s look of surprise and continued, “Furthermore, your actions earlier on—your trembling voice, pale lips, and flushed face—it must’ve been someone special.”

“You’re an impeccable doctor—very observant,” Jory praised.

Dustin tossed the newspaper into the bin and stood up abruptly. “Alright. I shall not probe you further. Bye.”

Jory knew that Dustin did not like to pressure others into answering his questions and appreciated his understanding. Both of them practically grew up together and attended the same college. They had a strong bond despite Dustin being older than Jory by three years.

He would give his utmost support for anything that Dustin wanted to do.
